    I will not be bringing the dump to my place and / or be building a house out of old tires like the Bush People.

    They are nice folks for sure but my style of architecture is a little more refined. ;)

    Grip awesome on snow and ice. No issues what so ever.

    They are $500.00 each up here, OUCH! and they have to be special ordered and shipped up here.

    So, I am going to throw a new set in my Connex container that I will shipping all of the rest of our stuff up in vs buying a set up here.

    Here is the view out the back (south side) of my place. My property line is just past the spruce trees farthest down the hill. Will fell those and a few other tress to open up the view.

    I need those Spruce to go through my saw mill anyway. They are just so happened to be in the perfect spots to open up the view as well. :)

    Very cool. As you know, but probably not too many here, you live near AIR, Augustine, Iliamna, & Redoubt volcanoes. All active. Hoo Wee!!

    Yeah, right now it feels like a secret thread that says it's about one thing, but about 12 of us are following and check every update because we know it's really about a Great American Wilderness Adventure!

    Wait... are you moving there? If so, that's freaking awesome!

    Alaska has always had this allure for me as the last true American frontier. I'm enamored with that place, even though I've only seen it from afar. I should be headed your way in 2019. Would totally be cool to meet up and see if you had found some good spots to go wheeling/camping.
